I don’t know what they are but we take them out and use them as shims where needed. Saves us about 50 bucks a house.

That’s cross bracing. helps transfer the load from one joist to another and keep everything straight. Pretty standard building practice for many years.
Nice looking home. That would be a hell of basement finished.
Exactly, nicely explained so that JMonroe can start using bracing when he starts making better quality homes.
It would make for a nice finished basement...but then relatives might want to stay over. We'd rather live upstairs, and not in the basement no matter how well it is finished.

Not as much as a chimney landing on my 22 year old air conditioner, but not too bad.

@roadburner, if you get the cable station MeTV you can watch Star Trek every Saturday night at 11PM. They have been running the series for years now.
Next Saturday night they’re showing season 1 episode 12.

Stinks he didn't get more money, but not everyone can be so lucky to have a tornado throw a chimney on them.
I wonder if....once the chips start flowing in if there will be big bargains on gassers because not too many will want them if gas is $5 a gallon.

Traditionally best time to buy a gas guzzler. And get frugal car when gas is cheap.

Best time to buy big cars that use a lot of gas is when gas prices are high. I have a friend in rural Illinois that wants 4WD because of the snow and usually gets Jeeps. He alway finds good used ones cheep when gas gets high.

So makers recommend against it. But likely won’t hurt.

Compare prices on the TEchron Fuel System cleaner, not the fuel injector cleaner, on the two sizes before buying, if you decide you want to imbibe. Some folks use SeaFoam for similar purposes.

Daughter picks up her new Subaru Outback tomorrow! She knows what to expect from the finance manager. Hope everything goes smoothly. Wish I could be there with a sack lunch. Maybe next time.

Canadian dollars, right driver100? When I first read your post, I started to feel bad about what you paid, but then it hit me - “Canadian Dollars”!
I spent $55.00 (US dollars) for 1/2 a tank (About 12 gallons). It’s getting pretty ugly, isn’t it?

Buy Chevron gasoline - it has Techron in it.

What is the plan for the Stang? Is it coming with you to Ohio or are you going to sell it?
2023 Mercedes EQE 350 4Matic / 2022 Ram 1500 Bighorn, Built to Serve
Current plan is for it to go to Ohio. I'm trying to get enough of the aroma out it to take it to the trans shop.
Gotcha, hopefully it’s a simply repair once you get it there.

Yes, but in a way a dollar is a dollar. If you earn $1000 a week in the U.S. you probably earn $1000 a week in Canada. And gas costs more, about $8 a gallon CDN, which is closing in on $6 U.S.

The trans is the highest priority on a laundry list, but it's 31 years old and very original.
@driver100,
It's a bottom breather so it doesn't need an upper grille for cooling.
@fintail,
When I got it, I didn't even know about that song, but I have learned about it since then.

Good thing is it’s an AOD which is much easier than the modem 8+ speed automatics. I’m sure I’ve mentioned it before but when you have it in there have them change the TV bushing to a brass one. The plastic one it has now is very brittle after all those years.

Oops... just checked my calendar. I'm out of town, today.

A dollar is a dollar? Depends on your frame of reference. I’m talking about value - what you can buy for a US dollar vs a Canadian dollar vs an Australian dollar.
Is gasoline sold by the gallon or by liters (liters for you guys on the metric system) in Canada? US gallons are different than Imperial gallons as well.

Our 22nd coming up this year. And my brother will be signing up to start his 2nd marriage 3 days after that. Following that event, both my siblings will have their anniversaries within 7 days of ours. We were first, though. Ha. I think my sis is coming up on her 20th this year.

When we had the business we went to London twice a year and we bought books from there. If a dinner cost $10 at the time in Canada, it would cost 10 PDS in England. You would starve if you you tried to figure out what you were really paying....so just go with the flow.
When we are in Florida we can get a nice dinner for $20, but I don't want to ruin it by saying that really cost me $28 in CDN dollars. I go with the flow.
And yes, an imperial gallon is larger...I think 20%.

Congrats @snakeweasel, I can barely remember that far back when I was at my fighting weight. I think I actually won a few back then.
